As usual the morning was greeted with severe cold and blinding fog, but as I woke up I was filled with thought of my conversation over the phone with Khadija the previous night, she seemed like a nice person not like the rude vicious monster I pegged her to be, she talked Gently and not harsh couldn't wrap my Head around her actions, she gave a credible explanation but should I really Be considering it, if Anything to go by, First impression really matters it shows u Exactly who a person is and what's with the <I WANT US TO BE TALKING MORE OFTEN> what does she even mean by that. seriously one minute she's a vicious monster who wants to chop my Head off and the next she's a caring princess who oozes joy and happiness every where She goes I wasn't Having any of it.
I had breakfast with everyone as usual, our Princess of the house my Little Sister was celebrating her birthday so we had a little party for her and it was wrapped up pretty quickly.
Kameela called to remind me of our date at the market, not that I forgot she wanted to make sure I had no excuses, going to the market with a lady is pretty hectic you get to walk for long without buying anything.
I guess it was my Lucky day, she wasn't buying much and quickly that luck turned sour when Khadija called and Kameela picked the call again my Phone's always with her.
KHADIJA:HELLO ZAHRADEEN HOW WAS YOUR NIGHT
KAMEELA:ITS NOT HIM ITS HIS GIRLFRIEND
KHADIJA:OK THEN GIVE HIM THE PHONE WHY ARE YOU ALWAYS WITH HIS PHONE ANYWAY.
KAMEELA:AM HIS FREAKING GIRLFRIEND YOU IDIOT.
Tins was getting messy so I snatched the phone from her grasp and told Khadija am sorry I'll call u back later then I hung up.
I wasn't really Happy with Kameela for insulting Khadija but I couldn't tell her that it'll piss her off even more, she questioned my Loyalty to her, she was feeling insecure which is normal, just last night you weren't interested in talking to her and this morning it's like you are good friends already. What's changed she asked me.
Khadija called me last night just as I was About To go to bed I explained, she wanted to apologize for being Rude and she asked that I forgave Her which I did. OK OK but why is she calling you this morning, well she did say she wanted us to talk more often I replied, Kameela was clearly upset by this so she walked away, I had to go after her And pleaded, unknowing to both of us we was creating a scene already in the market. Clearly people noticed they are a couple and they are having an argument, having said all this I used the situation to my advantage to get Her to stop moving and hear me out.
ZAHRADEEN I love you, I don't want any Girl to come in between us pls don't pick her calls from now on. I had to agree so she won't Be mad at me anymore. We got to her home later after buying everything we Could at the market, surprisingly there was no one at-home lucky for us we got to kiss and make out.
On my way home MY PHONE RANG IT WAS KHADIJA.
KHAIDJA:YOU PROMISED TO CALL ME.ZAHRADEEN:YEAH WELL I GOT TIRED AFTER WALKING IN THE MARKET FOR SO LONG. AM SORRY FOR WHAT KAMEELA SAID TO YOU, SHE SHOULDN'T HAVE GONE THAT FAR.
KHADIJA:ITS OK I UNDERSTAND SHE'S ONLY TRYNA BE PROTECTIVE OF HER MAN.ZAHRADEEN: SHE DOESN'T WANT US TALKING TO EACH OTHER ANYMORE.
KHADIJA:WOAH WILL U DO AS SHE SAYS
ZAHRADEEN:YEAH I WANNA MAKE HER HAPPY
KHAIDJA: plz don't do it I got a good friend finally pls don't do as She says.
ZAHARADEEN:OK FINE BUT YOU HAVE TO TELL ME ALL ABOUT YOU AND ALSO I HAVE TO SEE HOW YOU LOOK LIKE YOUR PROFILE PIC ISN'T ON WHATSAPP SO YOU SEND IT TO ME. AM I CLEAR
KHADIJA:YES SIR.
we both laughed and Ended the call.

She studies at Bingham university a private institution in Abuja, accountancy was her Course study, she just like me was in her fourth year.

When her photo finally Came, what I saw created chaos in my Head, is She a real life art or those You see on paper, She was beauty redefined.
